35cm is in reach I think. Should I even bother shoveling?

Can't mow it.

You can mow anything if you put your mind to it.You have to sprinkle lawn fertilizer first.

Just hit the big three-oh thanks to lingering light snow. -0.5ËšC.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I had a really heavy snow squall come through between 11:00 and 11:30 that dumped a quick 6 or 7 cm on me. One of the heaviest rates of accumulation I have seen.

Holy crap. My husband measured and says we have 31 cm now. :shock:

I don't remember the last time I had that much here. And it's still snowing lightly.

That's awesome. I just missed on that one, then. Either way, Probably around 29 right now. Just need these flurries for another hour.

Euro says we have about 2 hours of light snow left to go, so looks like you are in luck.

It's my best snowfall since moving here, and in an El Niño winter at that. And it means I now have as streak of three consecutive winters featuring 20+ cm snowfalls.

I was at 27” a couple hours ago so I’d say yes!
